Thanks for the quick reply, unfortunately, no luck, I wonder if the password is the problem. The message I get when I try to hook back in to TrainSim is 'waiting for connection' or 'disconnected', but despite trying a heap of URL's I cannot resume downlaods.I have used this program to test a MSTS site in Oz (Steam4me) and it works perfectly, picks up where I have left off.Can an assistance be provided, this has me buggered.Dick

If you are using the newest version or even a little older version, it seems that the resume function does not work from here. Sometimes I get incomplete downloads, if I click on the incomplete download it just brings up a box that basically says it can't be found, at that point I just go back and re-download that file, then it picks up where it left off.

I use DAP... I start a download, and if I do NOT have time to finish, stop it.. when I want to RESUME, I MUST log back in TO the file library-this gives you a NEW password that is valid WHILE YOU ARE CONNECTED so, to resume your download/s, log in, select the file again, start the download, say yes, and when the name at the top of your IE window changes to REFLECT the new password line, hit your STOP BUTTON..
something/something /password/ filename.zip copy that line, and in your EXISTING partial download, insert THAT LINE INTO the path. then hit resume.. this will work FOR THAT FILE, until you stop it. OR log OUT.
if you stop BEFORE its completed you MUST log into the library again and repeat. I have done this as many as a half dozen times, over several days, to get some really big files.
